At NMC, we believe our Audio Tech students will be better prepared for the workforce and the ever-changing music industry by combining aspects of a traditional music education, hands-on training on the newest technology, and opportunities to learn in a variety of environments and experiences - the studio, the stage, and the classroom. Students will have the opportunity to learn, and work with, industry-standard hardware and software recording platforms including: Pro Logic, Digital Performer, and Pro Tools. Students will also have practical real-world experience in studio and live recording, sound design, composing, mixing, and mastering. The NMC Audio Tech Program is designed to be completed in four consecutive semesters (including summer), with either a Fall or Spring start. While completing coursework in the Audio Tech program, students will have the opportunity to earn platform-specific certification, professional credentials of value, and an Associate Degree in Applied Science.
